The Administrative Law Judge issued the attached decision
in the above-entitled proceeding finding that the Respondent
violated section 7116(a)(1), (5), and (8) of the Federal
Service Labor-Management Relations Statute by refusing to
furnish the Union with the names and home addresses of
bargaining unit employees represented by the Union. The Judge
granted the General Counsel's motion for summary judgment and
recommended that the Respondent be ordered to take appropriate
remedial action. The Respondent filed exceptions to the
Judge's decision. Neither the General Counsel nor the Union
filed an opposition to the Respondent's exceptions.

Pursuant to section 2423.29 of the Authority's Rules and
Regulations, we have reviewed the rulings of the Judge and find
that no prejudicial error was committed. The rulings are
affirmed. On consideration of the entire record, we adopt the
Judge's findings, conclusions, and recommended Order for the reasons fully set forth in U.S.
